279322 2004-10-08 18:26:00 I have Xandros and windows on my comp and would like to know is it possible to cut and past from within xandros over to windows.
I can see windows files ok using Xandros file manager (Administrator) but I get an error message when I try to copy into them.

No. ;-) :D

279326 2004-10-08 23:32:00 You may be better off getting Ext2IFS for Windows, which will allow you read/write capabilities of the (Basic) native Linux Filesystem, Ext2 or Ext3. IIRC, Xandros installs onto Ext3 by preference.

Google for Ext2IFS and install it :-)
If you're running Win9x, then you'll have to use Explore2FS for accessing your linux partitions which isnt as good as Full-out Windows Drivers, but its good none-the-less!
